A is for Athletic

I like to consider myself
athletic, even if not an athlete.I’ve
always wanted to be good at sports.I’m
not!I do enjoy working out with Zumba
or a rowing machine.I love ticking
miles on the odometer of my bicycle.The
feel of a perfectly placed shot in tennis gives me a total rush of exhilaration.

Knowing that the hard work
is making a difference is the key.
Whether it is by strength, endurance, or accuracy I am pleased with
change and growth in myself.

I
can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Philippians
4:13 (NKJV)

Do
you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the
prize? Run in such a way as to get the
prize.

I've never been good at sports but I love to walk on the treadmill, go for long walks and do strength training. I'll definitely do more of that really soon. Exercising does so much good not only for the body but for the soul too.

Thanks for stopping by. I was just at you place and LOVE you blog name. Brilliant! Exercising just makes me feel so much more alive, unless I feel like I'm ready to pass out in a workout or so sore I can hardly move. :)

I don't like working out, but was good at sports when I was younger. Now arthritis has me in need of doing maintenance type exercises at home...pretty much daily. It's not going away and so I keep at it; but it's not exciting. I do love to ride my bike; though can't do many miles at a time. Just bought a odometer for my cruiser last year. Had to laugh when I saw how fast/slow I was going.

I am SO the same way. I WANT to be athletic but feel as if I am simply pushing myself every step of the way. I may have been made for long island teas and front porches... though I've never had a long island tea. LOL
